There are many ways to support St. Angela Merici Parish School – some are monetary and some are volunteering your time and talent. Thank you for helping the children of St. Angela Merici School.

Parent Teacher Connection (PTC)

The St. Angela Merici PTC's main function is to improve the educational experience of the children of St. Angela Merici School by developing a close relationship with parents, school administration, teachers, and students. Together we work to identify the needs of the school and students and develop solutions to enhance all aspects of the school environment, helping our children to become successful members of society.

The SAM PTC sponsors many of the events that the children of St. Angela's attend, including the Book Fair, Pastries with Parents, Candy Cane Shop, Homeless Stand Down, Father’s Mass Reception, Holy Thursday Easter Basket Assembly, Father-Daughter Dance, Mother-Son Outing, and Mother’s Mass Reception. In addition, the PTC sponsors the many teacher appreciation events throughout the year.

The PTC provides a means for parents to address areas of concern and to voice opinions and suggestions. Attending the monthly PTC meeting is the best way to stay informed of what is happening in our school and to be involved in the development of new ideas.

We hope you become not only a member, but an active member of the PTC and help to make a positive impact on our school.
